Reporter on Bond Market: The yields have come back up since then. Have you talked to Bessent about another type of intervention.?
Trump: The ultimate intervention is our military. And if we have to use that, we will.
Paramount just issued a lengthy statement responding to @MarkRuffalo:
"We are, as always, troubled when antisemitic tropes are invoked in purported service of a business dispute. Words like ‘genocide’ and ‘apartheid,’ applied to a corporate transaction, aren’t just wrong — they’re a bridge too far, and they cheapen the very real suffering those words are meant to describe. This doesn't deserve a response in kind — and to be clear, we don’t tolerate prejudice of any kind, against anyone.
This brings us to a moment to lower the temperature, not raise it. We’d rather build than further engage in such rhetoric. This simply exposes the true motivation of some who have advocated opposition to this transaction. On the other hand, our commitment to great content is matched by our commitment to acceptance - to every story, every storyteller, and no blacklists, no exceptions, for anyone.
We understand people feel strongly about this merger and are hopeful and expect that it will be judged based on the legal merits, not underlying bias. We’re asking for the same good faith we’re extending: less rhetoric, more understanding. Paramount’s future is being written for everyone who wants to make and watch great stories."
Camila's investigation for Dropsite uncovered that the US Coast Guard is likely utilizing the Shield AI V-BAT drone to assist with the CIA's operations again Ecuadorian fisherman.
To summarize some of the recent findings: the US Coast Guard is terrorizing civilians in the Eastern Pacific by monitoring their targets with Shield AI surveillance drones, attacking them with FPV drones, and then picking up and torturing shipwrecked survivors with the assistance of the CIA, who are operating out of an infamous airbase that was the central hub for arming the contras and trafficking cocaine back to the US. When an Ecuadorian prosecutor tried to investigate these drone attacks on civilians, she was gunned down in broad daylight.

Reporter: Sir why hasn’t Kim Jong Un responded to your request to have a conversation.

NO SYMPATHY: NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch delivered a blunt message to those who support Luigi Mangione:
"Violence is not a cause. Murder is not a message. And a killer is certainly not a hero."
Just so people are really aware of what this means: A Trump appointee has approved Trump’s personal crypto firm to operate as a bank
Corporations can conduct transactions in which the Trump family gets a cut
The public will not have to be informed
There’s no precedent for this
JD Vance wants to end the US dollar's position as a global reserve currency, because he thinks it allows Americans to consume too much and do so too cheaply.
Keep that in mind the next time you order a $20 burrito on door dash.
